IN a bid to further distance itself from the discredited MLA, the Congress has informed the assembly speaker that Rahul Mamkootathil is no longer a member of its parliamentary party. Congress parliamentary party leader V D Satheesan on Friday evening handed over a letter in this regard to the speaker's office. On the basis of the letter, Rahul will be considered as part of an independent block. Speaker A N Shamseer will decide on the seating arrangement of Rahul on September 15, the day the assembly session starts.
